I realise there were quite a lot of Macbooks at the LAC. I even used mine for presentations but ran Linux on it part of the time. Due to the insane pressure of organising the LAC while at the same time all lectures and most other tasks had to continue I reluctantly stuck to OS-X most of the time in the past months because reboots drove me crazy. So sorry for that, but I'm going back to 99% Linux now. Most of our staff and students use a Mac and OS-X, although more and more students are adopting dual booting into Linux. We'll have to show them the advantages. I know several students that were at the LAC are in for the change, so the LAC certainly helped in creating awareness. We'll increasingly be incorporating Linux in the curriculum from now on. I quite like Apple's hardware though. So far I had quite a lot of trouble with PCs for audio, mainly due to the noise produced by the mains adapters, which seems to work its way right down to even firewire sound cards, which is unacceptable for serious work. So what will be my next laptop ? Advice on noiseless laptops is much appreciated.
